25
26 The atomic_exchange_rel synchronizes-with the atomic_exhange_acq in
27 pthread_spin_lock.
28
29 On hppa we must not use a plain `stw` to reset the guard lock. This
30 has to do with the kernel compare-and-swap helper that is used to
31 implement all of the atomic operations.
32
33 The kernel CAS helper uses its own internal locks and that means that
34 to create a true happens-before relationship between any two threads,
35 the second thread must observe the internal lock having a value of 0
36 (it must attempt to take the lock with ldcw). This creates the
37 ordering required for a second thread to observe the effects of the
38 RMW of the kernel CAS helper in any other thread.
39
40 Therefore if a variable is used in an atomic macro it must always be
41 manipulated with atomic macros in order for memory ordering rules to
42 be preserved. */
